stocked in a refrigerator. What we need is storage for serving dishes,

linens and cookbooks.

By Day Two after closing on the house, the kitchen closet door came off and went to the garage.The result was open storage with benefits: A display of tabletop pieces, an illusion of a larger kitchen, and easy access for setting a table or gathering baking supplies and cookbooks.

How brave to take the doors off. Would be hard for me to keep it looking good. I have organization, but my husband thinks I don't and doesn't see it. Hmmmm. Must be fun to set up a new household as you are doing. Taking your time.

I have a pantry door right next to my fridge. It's full of stuff like broom, garbage can and upper shelves that hold lots of stuff. I know for sure it wouldn't look as nice as yours with the door off! Good job!
